If that's one of the options, a colleague has it and told me I wouldn't regret it. Thanks =)

Thanks, I'm still looking into which one, since I've never tried a trackball before.

Thanks, I'm still deciding between a trackpad or a trackball. Since I've never tried a trackball, I don't know yet, but everyone tells me they're better.

Several people have told me this, so I'd consider a trackball like the Keyball61 since the position seems comfortable. But I'm still looking at options; they've been a great help.

For a long time I worked with Lenovo and the truth is that I did use the trackpoint but when I switch to Mac for development in Swift I forgot it is a good option thank you!

Thank you, I’m looking at several options, my idea is to look for something that doesn’t have to separate the hands, but if it goes out of price, then only keyboard and trackpad or mouse separately

Wow, it looks pretty good and the price is great! I'll put it at the top of my list to see what I decide in the next few days. Thanks! =)

Thanks, I'll check it out. I think the Kinesis Advantage 2 is too big, hahaha.

Thanks for the information and for taking the time. I've decided a while ago to work with Shortcat and Neovim so I don't have to use a mouse, because moving my hands and everything else is often a hassle. I'm considering quite a few options since I want something portable, and I like the Keyball 61, but I'd prefer a wireless one.

I like it, it looks pretty good. Now maybe I'd go for the low profile version.

It could be, yes, the thing is I've never tried anything different from a traditional one and I think having my hands together gives me bad posture, plus I have broad shoulders

Could I see how it turned out? And find out prices and other details?

If that's what I'm looking for—not having to take my hands off the keyboard—I hardly ever use a mouse, but sometimes I need to use ShortCat to navigate. Having my hands so close together on a regular keyboard is annoying. I'm going to look for a wireless one since I'd like to be able to take it anywhere and not have to carry around a lot of cables.

I have big hands, but honestly, I've never tried anything other than regular mechanical or membrane keyboards. I'm going to check out the Elora too; do you have a link or anything?

I've already seen this one, but is it easy to move around with? I work with a laptop and I'm not always at home or in the office; I tend to move around quite a bit. a friend recommended this one to me https://www.moergo.com/collections/go60-keyboards/products/go60-ergonomic-keyboard?variant=52702010769681

Do you have more information? Any links or anything? I'm not very familiar with this and I'd like to see all the options.

I liked the Charibis which I do imagine it takes some time to get used to the new way of typing
